I am busy.
I choose to be.
I want to squeeze out of this time here on earth all that's possible for a body to accomplish.
To serve.
To encourage.
To help when and where needed.
-- But --
That doesn't mean my heart and soul must be frantic.
-- And --
That doesn't mean I should run ahead of God,
finding my own opportunities to be busy rather than those He's granted.
-- Still --
Still my spirit.
Quiet me at Your feet.
Remind me, frequently, to fall to my knees and adore.
Life is not an emergency.
It is a gift.

That is so beautiful, Michelle, and such a timely reminder. I'm going to print that out and hang it in my office. :) I'll make you one, too.
especially timely on a Sunday, and I'm exhausted and sore [I may have seriously overdone it this week] definitely a take-it-easy, kick-back-and-read day of rest kind of Sunday! thanks for the reminder in such lovely form!
Amen. Well said and timely.
Love this!
Ane ~ Go for it.
Robin ~ A reading day of rest is always a good idea.
Lori & Chappy ~ Glad I'm not the only one that feels this way.
Love these ... <3
Yay! Glad this is a welcome addition here at Writer Off the Leash.
Beautiful! The cry of my heart too!
